Ques. 1AIPMT 2012 (Prelims)

Which of the following statements is false?

  1. Artificial silk is derived from cellulose.
  2. Nylon-6, 6 is an example of elastomer.
  3. The repeat unit in natural rubber is isoprene.
  4. Both starch and cellulose are polymers of glucose.

Answer

(2) Nylon-6, 6 is an example of elastomer.

Solution

As per NCERT, nylon-6,6 is a fibre — it has strong intermolecular forces (hydrogen bonds) between the chains, giving high tensile strength. Elastomers such as natural rubber and neoprene have the weakest intermolecular forces.

Statement (2) is false.

Statements (1), (3) and (4) are correct: rayon (artificial silk) is regenerated cellulose, natural rubber is cis-polyisoprene, and starch and cellulose are polymers of glucose.

Answer: (2)
